Description
Everyone should be laughing, because if you are tall, then you know what I am talking about here. If you are not, this is the kind of shit you do on a regular basis.Seriously though, I might not really care as much as I have portrayed, but the situations are rather life-inspired.

I don't get told I'm tall, I get told I'm SMALL.
I'm just like....no shit, sherlock.

Yes...Tall is a task and a half.
It's even more tedious when you're a girl, 'cause then everyones eyes are on boob level >.<
And they always need to comment....as panel one demonstrates.

. . . I'm short. Someone told me today that I'm smart because I'm short.
I wasn't sure how to feel about that.

It was something about how the smart has to travel over less area . . . but I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way. It doesn't work that way at all.

being tall sucks when you're a girl :/

Ahahaa!! xDD That's actually very accurate! I'm not nearly as tall as you, I'm more around 5'11", but that's still taller than most girls I know!

As a chick who happens to be 6'2", I feel your pain. Luckily, my best friend's dad long ago supplied me with the snappiest comeback ever.
"You're tall, do you play basketball?!"
"You're short, do you play miniature golf?"

Actually, this goes the opposite way, too. At nineteen, I'm still under five feet tall, and I get the same "Wow, you're short!" and "My cousin has this friend who's two feet three billion milli-inches!"
(I am aware that milli-inches do not exist.)
... yes.

its exists under the new english metric system, created as a final compromise between the US and the rest of the world. This new system features such units of measurement as the centi-foott, Kilo-mile, and liter-gallon.

I have a solution! Either a) hang out with other people your same height, or b) Don't talk to anyone
"I'll kill him for challenging me!"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
are you the same height as me? otherwise, I cant talk to you.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
almost. only 7" less. and I'm much younger than you! With my growing powers, I shall surpass you >:3

I'm at the opposite end. I'm short.
People are like "Oh, I didn't SEE you there because you're not TALL enough to be SEEN over this REALLY SHORT fence."
Yes. Just like that.
"Oh man, I left my keys in the house and I can't fit into my window to open the door. Do you know any short people?"
"Actually, yes. I'll go call her up right now..."
AND THEN THEY CALL ME.
True story, I kid you not.

Is it worse because you're asian _and_ tall?
Does that make you a ninja/basketballplayer?!?ZOMG

The exact same thing happens with short people. I approve.

ksjdfsdf
I know what you mean
I mean, personally, I'm short, but I have a whole bunch of tall friends who are constantly being told they're tall.

It's funny because it's true.
[6'4"? My brother, all of my uncles, and all of cousins, even the girls, (except for me,) are, like, 6'9". No, really. : P]

Good luck. They all weigh well over 200 lbs., [even the women.]

This is why God invented the .50 caliber sniper rifle. And claymore mines.

I want someone to come up to me and say "Oh my god you're like the in between height! So medium!"
I'm not sure if I said you're tall when we first met. But things like this have to be expected for people can be masters of the obvious.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ZOMG! I wish someone would tell me about my medium height TOOOOOOOOO!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dude you are sooo medium!
WOAH_me_too!!!
Theres this guy I know who is so medium that....

" Wow, you're so tall! Do you play basketball? Are you a model? You should become the only basketball playing model and start your own TV show. God, you're tall."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha! Yeah, I forgot about the whole basketball angle.
"Hey, do you play basketball"
"...No"
"Well, you SHOULD, because you'd be good at it."
"Oh yeah? Height is the only prerequisite for being good at basketball? And here I was, thinking all those guys practiced everyday or something."
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Actually, the main prerequisite is being black. If you ain't black, or don't spreakenz Ghetto-talk...don't bother.

And then people see someone tall playing basketball and failing, and they're surprised. Hmm, yes. Maybe I should ask the next obese person I see if they sumo wrestle, if physical characteristics are the only thing that determine how good you are at any given sport.
